This property is wonderful in many ways. Read the whole review if you are going there. The apartment has 2 rooms w A/C. The shutters block out the noise that always happens, everywhere, in Venice during the day. It is only about 100 feet/30 meters from the Hotel Scandinavia. Knowing this will help you figure out how to get there. It is about 12 minutes from the Realto bridge (Orange Line ferry) from the airport. Your phones directions will often get confused, due to the tall brick buildings. It is best to spend 25 to 35 Euros to have “Constantine” or another porter (who are along that dock) to take you the 1st time-- as there are 3 bridges and many alleys to go down to get to the property. You will either need Mobile service or WhatsApp, with a data plan (you can download an eSim card, such as Mama Mia, ahead of time), as the local "free" Venice wifi does Not work. The owner's agent arranges the night before arrival (only via WhatsApp or text--not email) a time to meet you near the apartment. We were delayed (bad airline) and then we had trouble, even with the nice agent's help, connecting with him to get the key. There are only 1 or 2 apartments in the building that are rented, so you have to see an agent to get the key. The bed is very firm. There are dishes and pans with a stove top. There is no microwave, TV or oven. Weak shared wifi.There is only 1 key.No lift. Wonderful balcony. A 5 Star VeniceApt. The neighborhood is wonderful. We’d love to go again.
